I personally am capable of working any boomer in their prime into exhausting while I'm still pushing for hours more. The whole "millenials are lazy" is corporate bullshit designed to make parents think their kids are just lazy and not being ripped off by the system they demand exists.

Pull a 16hr shift working network engineering during an outage, then come back to work in 8hrs for another full day on a Monday, then when the boomer stops having their mental break down they can apologize in person to every millennial they talked shit about.

Oh, and because you're an engineer, NO OVERTIME! YOU SALARY BITCH! THOSE HOURS ARE INCLUDED!

Ok that's fine I'll just be leaving that much earlier on friday

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 5 points 7 hours ago

Yeah that sounds healthy in the long run

I've got three meetings and an unscheduled emergency requiring 90% of the IT staff to sit on a conference call that says you'll be staying late Friday, too.

Ok that's fine I just won't be coming in at all on monday then.

And if it's going to keep happening like this we're gonna have a conversation about renegotiating my employment, because this is not what we agreed to.

Good!
